[Elecraft] Hey Guys

[Eric Swartz WA6HHQ - Elecraft]

The virus emails you are receiving are not being sent by their apparent From: 
addresses. As it turns out the virus is spoofing its from: address, using 
other addresses found in each infected computer's address book. I received 
over 300 of these virus emails today, many of which 'claimed' to be from 
addresses with my name or callsign in them. None were sent from my system.

Please, let's avoid a discussion of the latest viruses on this list, as they 
cause more traffic than the viruses and quickly drown out our regular list 
traffic ;-)
